FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Informations about the package launch-starter-kit

Launch Starter Kit

Laravel 13 + Launch Laravel + React 19 + Inertia v3 + VitePlus + Tailwind CSS v4 + shadcn

This repository contains the reusable application starter only. The Launch marketing and documentation website lives in nckrtl/launch and is not shipped in newly created applications.

Getting started

composer setup is an interactive guided setup. AI agents should follow /create.md instead, which is the same flow without prompts.

To do it manually:

Git hooks need no setup. bun install runs vp config via the package.json prepare script, which points core.hooksPath at VitePlus's dispatcher; that dispatcher runs the committed .vite-hooks/pre-commit and .vite-hooks/pre-push scripts. Pre-commit runs the staged tasks declared in vite.config.ts against staged files only and re-stages what they fix; pre-push runs composer test && composer analyse. Prefix a command with VP_GIT_HOOKS=0 to skip them once.

Then set the site up for your local environment — Herd and Orbit each need different steps, and both serve the app themselves, so neither uses php artisan serve or composer dev:

Set APP_URL and VITE_APP_URL to whichever domain that gives you. They must match exactly.

Working on the kit itself

The starter kit depends on nckrtl/launch-laravel from Packagist. To develop against a local checkout, link it rather than adding a path repository to composer.json — path repositories resolve only on your machine and break composer create-project for everyone else:

composer link keeps composer.json and composer.lock untouched. Run composer unlink <path> to go back to the published package.

Agent-facing docs

/llms.txt and /create.md are served from resources/markdown/ by AgentDocsController. Edit the Markdown files; no rebuild needed.

Development

Under Herd or Orbit the app is already served — skip composer dev and follow the environment addendum linked above instead.

AI-Assisted Development

This project uses AGENTS.md for AI coding assistants. It includes feature completion gates requiring Pest/Pest Browser coverage and agent-browser validation for UI-affecting work.
